The cost to rent each chair is $1.5 and cost to rent each table is $6.5

<h3>Applications of systems of linear equations </h3>

From the question, we are to determine the cost to rent each chair and each table

Let c represent chair

and

t represent table

From the given information,

The total cost to rent 5 chairs and 3 tables is $27

That is,

5c + 3t = 27 ------------ (1)

Also,

The total cost to rent 2 chairs and 12 tables is $81

That is,

2c + 12t = 81 ---------- (2)

Now, solve the equations simultaneously

5c + 3t = 27 ------------ (1)

2c + 12t = 81 ---------- (2)

Multiply equation (1) by 2 and multiply equation (2) by 5

2 × [5c + 3t = 27 ]

5 × [2c + 12t = 81 ]

10c + 6t = 54        ------------- (3)

10c + 60t = 405   ------------- (4)

Subtract equation (4) from equation (3)

10c + 6t = 54        

10c + 60t = 405

---------------------------

-54t = -351

t = -351/-54

t = 6.5

Substitute the value of t into equation (2)
2c + 12t = 81

2c + 12(6.5) = 81

2c + 78 = 81

2c = 81 - 78

2c = 3

c = 3/2

c = 1.5

∴ The cost of chair is $1.5 and cost of table is $6.5

Hence, the cost to rent each chair is $1.5 and cost to rent each table is $6.5

Answer:

100

Step-by-step explanation:

Isosceles triangle have 2 equal angles. Therefore the second angle in the triangle will also be 25.

Since the sum of angles in a triangle is 180.

180-(25x2) will give you the last angle in one of the triangles.

The other angle is identical so the angle at the top of the other triangle will also be 130.

The sum of angles in a circle is 360.

Therefore, angle x = 360-(130x2)

X= 100

Write an equation of the hyperbola given that the center is at (2, -3), the vertices are at (2, 3) and (2, - 9), and the foci ar
zavuch27 [327]
Check the picture below.

so, the hyperbola looks like so, clearly a = 6 from the traverse axis, and the "c" distance from the center to a focus has to be from -3±c, as aforementioned above, the tell-tale is that part, therefore, we can see that c = 2√(10).

because the hyperbola opens vertically, the fraction with the positive sign will be the one with the "y" in it, like you see it in the picture, so without further adieu,

\bf \textit{hyperbolas, vertical traverse axis }&#10;\\\\&#10;\cfrac{(y- k)^2}{ a^2}-\cfrac{(x- h)^2}{ b^2}=1&#10;\qquad &#10;\begin{cases}&#10;center\ ( h, k)\\&#10;vertices\ ( h,  k\pm a)\\&#10;c=\textit{distance from}\\&#10;\qquad \textit{center to foci}\\&#10;\qquad \sqrt{ a ^2 + b ^2}\\&#10;asymptotes\quad  y= k\pm \cfrac{a}{b}(x- h)&#10;\end{cases}\\\\&#10;-------------------------------

\bf \begin{cases}&#10;h=2\\&#10;k=-3\\&#10;a=6\\&#10;c=2\sqrt{10}&#10;\end{cases}\implies \cfrac{[y- (-3)]^2}{ 6^2}-\cfrac{(x- 2)^2}{ b^2}=1&#10;\\\\\\&#10;\cfrac{(y+3)^2}{ 36}-\cfrac{(x- 2)^2}{ b^2}=1&#10;\\\\\\&#10;c^2=a^2+b^2\implies (2\sqrt{10})^2=6^2+b^2\implies 2^2(\sqrt{10})^2=36+b^2&#10;\\\\\\&#10;4(10)=36+b^2\implies 40=36+b^2\implies 4=b^2&#10;\\\\\\&#10;\sqrt{4}=b\implies 2=b\\\\&#10;-------------------------------\\\\&#10;\cfrac{(y+3)^2}{ 36}-\cfrac{(x- 2)^2}{ 2^2}=1\implies \cfrac{(y+3)^2}{ 36}-\cfrac{(x- 2)^2}{ 4}=1
